Audacity can't find "libwx_gtk2u_xrc-3.1.so.1" on Oracle Linux

Here is what I get if I type "sudo yum install pulseaudio":

Code: Select all

[sudo] password for teo.samarzija: 
Failed to set locale, defaulting to C
Loaded plugins: langpacks, ulninfo
Package pulseaudio-10.0-5.el7.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

That's curious. You have PulseAudio installed, but it's not available to Audacity.

Are you able to open Pulse Audio Volume Control from the command line (without using su or sudo)

Code: Select all

pavucontrol

Try installing pavucontrol (it is recommended for audio work on Linux).

OK, thanks, now that I've installed it, Audacity can record sound from my microphone.

That's good.
Did you manage to get FFmpeg working?

I'll try it when I find the time. I am studying electrical engineering and computer science at the FERIT University in Osijek and it's rather demanding.
Like I've said, I've compiled FFmpeg from source and it works when it's invoked directly. So, if I need it, I can use it directly, I don't need to do it through Audacity.

If you're not able to get Audacity to recognize FFmpeg, you would still be able to export using FFmpeg as an "external program": https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/exp ... ogram.html
